8.5! Jeeez

[HRBAKER]

Overgraded, no better than a BCCG 7.

Like the PSA keyword spamming in the title

I don't see the big horizontal crease. Or even a small one for that matter.

I didn't at first either, but use the blow up tool, start at the top and scroll down that left side to about 1/4th the way down, it's faint, but you can see the telltale signs of cardboard stretch caused by a crease. The back ...well I couldn't see it, but it's there on the front.

The card looks pretty nice,but i have a feeling that when it's delivered, someone is gonna be ticked off!

It's an 8.5...of course it is perfect, Ha!
Looks like front shoulder straight left to edge.

I see it now. The price on this is pretty surprising to me. Even without the crease I would assume that card is at least altered, if not counterfeit. I have my doubts that this is a legitimate auction.

8***8 seems fishy:

Bid retractions: 7
Bid retractions (6 months): 11

The winner really wanted it as it looks like he put in a larger bid at the end so he wouldn't get outbid. He is going to be one happy camper!! What a solid buy.

Certainly looks like this card has been put through the wringer. Literally.

Think someone just overpaid formal PSA 2 At best and possibly Altered.

It looks real,

Just cleaned, trimmed and creased also. I would put it in the 400-650 in an Auth SGC holder to the right excited buyer.

Whoever just felt like this was a good deal is taking a 4k bath.

One way of cleaning cards also removes creases. Problem is the creases come back. Might be a month might be a couple years but the creases always come back.
